1979 f350 heavy duty leaf springs?

I have a 1979 f350 with a 400 and 4 speed. The truck runs great and has plenty of power. The only issue is I have a tree business and we tend to overload the truck from time to time. I was wondering if anyone knows if I can get heavy duty leaf springs for the rear.
The old truck is a work horse and doesn't have much upkeep and I can actually work on it so I really don't want to upgrade to a newer f550 or something. Any infor is appreciated I almost posted on the towing section but figured this would be a better place. Thanks!!

You have a F350... that is heavy duty. Sounds like you need some overloads or air bags for the rear. Do you have factory overloads on it now?
